Jennifer disappeared for a week refusing to answer either of our text messages or phone calls. Hal was pretty quiet and it was obvious he was reflecting on his decisions. I was upset at the thought that the writing was on the wall in both my relationship with Hal as well as with Jennifer. Can you really bring your friendship back after something like this? I knew I was not willing to come between Hal and Jennifer as they only had each other.
Hal sat quietly behind the counter as I walked in. The gas station was quiet so I took the opportunity to slide up behind him and give him a hug; holding him tight I kissed him gently between his shoulder blades, "We should probably talk."
The conversation was somber as we finally agreed that it was time for me to head out on my own. It was the only real choice we had and he offered to help me find a place and get settled. I had moved back in to my room after the Jennifer incident and it was evident the relationship component of our relationship had come to an end. At night I would lay in bed aching for his touch and forcing myself not to run down the hall and climb in his bed.
After the second week of messages from Hal, Jennifer finally called him back. I listened from the top of the stairs as he apologized for his behavior and that it just sort of happened and was not planned. There was a lot of silence when I assume Jennifer shared her mind with him. My heart sunk when he said it was over and that I would be moving out as soon as I found a place.
When the time came we loaded my belongings up and went to my new home. My new home was a one bedroom apartment on the ninth floor overlooking the roof of a shopping mall across the street. The only piece of furniture in the house was the bed that Hal let me take. Before leaving Hal turned and kissed me holding my face in his hands.
His sad eyes stared deeply in to mine, "I will make some calls to get you some furniture."
"You know you don't have to do that." I lowered my eyes.
After a kiss on the forehead I was alone with the echo of my steps in the apartment. A few hours later there was a knock on my door catching me by surprise. I quickly opened the door to see Hal standing there.
"Use the peep hole!" He scorned. "I don't want anyone busting in here taking advantage of my girl!"
I stared disbelieving with a stupid smile on my face, "Your girl?"
Hal stepped in and pulled my face to his kissing me deeply. I threw my arms and legs around him as he lifted me off the ground and carried me to my only piece of furniture. I stared up at him as he hovered his lips over mine and smiled. Without hesitation I hooked my thumbs on the band of my shorts and began to pull them down.
Grabbing my shorts, Hal flipped me on my stomach pulling them down to the back of my knees leaving me with my ass in the air. I'm still not sure when he undid his pants but a moment later his hard cock was pushing at my opening. With his arm around me his hand found my breast and massaged it as he worked himself in to me.
He plunged aggressively in to me like a wild animal and his hand squeezed my breast hard. I did my best to look over my shoulder at him. His face was turned to the ceiling with his eyes closed in ecstasy. His lower lip clenched between his teeth as he rammed himself in me. He had never taken me like this and I needed him as much as he needed me.
Releasing my breast, Hal grabbed my hips and began to pound me faster; pulling my hips back on his cock as if he was trying to hit my tonsils. His breathing was heavy as he fucked me like a sex doll. His intensity was intoxicating.
Turning my head to him I licked my lips, "You gonna give me my reward?"
Hal responded by pushing me prone and burying his cock in me; his big hand resting between my shoulder blades as I lay flat on the bed. Hal worked his cock at a steady rhythm muttering under his breath the entire time. I was euphoric just having him in my bed again. Reality reared its head abruptly when Hal pushed himself as deep as he could and unloaded his balls in me before collapsing on top of me.
"Oh fuck I needed that." His hot breath panted the words in my ear.
I lay stunned and confused, "Oh baby, you shouldn't have done that."
"I love you Laura, no matter what." He kissed the side of my face, "I will look after you so don't worry."
As I made my way to the bathroom I used my shirt to stop his seed from dripping on the floor. After a crude clean up with my limited supplies I returned to the bedroom to see Hal getting dressed.
"You're leaving?" I pouted.
"We're leaving. Get dressed." Hal gestured towards my open suitcase.
It was almost 11 pm when we returned to the apartment after multiple trips to the car to unload the purchases he had made. I now had the basic necessities of an apartment. Hal took me shopping to buy all the necessities like pots, cutlery, towels etc. Once I was settled in we stood kissing in the empty living area before he made his way home promising he would see me tomorrow.
The harsh morning light assaulted me through the bare window. I pulled a towel out of one of the bags and jumped in the shower. As I washed myself I realized that my monthly visitor had come relieving my mind of any potential pregnancy. Once dried off, I took the opportunity to put the bathroom items away; it looked like a real bathroom with floor mats, towels and all the personal hygiene items appropriately stowed.
I was barely dressed when the buzzer went off causing me to race naked across the apartment in hopes that Hal had arrived. "Delivery!" The male voice was not familiar but I hit the button to let him in and raced to my room to get dressed.
I stood waiting for an eternity but nobody came to the door. I texted Hal and he indicated he had furniture being delivered today. Relieved, I opened the door and stared towards the elevator where two men struggled to get a sofa out of the elevator.
I was in shock when the delivery guys left. Hal had bought everything imaginable for my apartment; a couch, end tables, kitchen table and even new bedroom set with a new bed. I was speechless as I searched wildly for my phone.
"Hal! You shouldn't have..." I gasped in the phone still disbelieving.
"Laura?" Hal interrupted me
"Yeah?"
"I love you and I will be over after I close the station tonight." He hung up the phone.
He loves me! The words echoed in my mind over and over. I couldn't wait to see him. Time went surprisingly fast as I worked to put things away and adjust the location of all my furniture. After countless trips to the trash chute I walked in to my home for the first time. I wandered from room to room disbelievingly as I took in the generosity Hal had bestowed on me.
A trip to the store was required before he arrived. I picked up groceries so I could offer him something when he arrived. The spaghetti dinner I had decided on was almost done and Hal would be here any moment. I turned the heat down and headed to the bedroom to get dressed.
Carefully pulling my new black stocking up I trimmed them flat where they stopped mid-thigh before pulling my beaded cream colored deep vee neck dress over my head. The hem ended just below the top of my stockings and the vee plunged below the bottom of my bare breasts. I barely had the heels on my feet when I heard the front door open. I raced out to greet him.
"This place looks gre..." His words were cut short as I pressed my lips against his.
